Fascinating Historical Figures That We’re Lucky To Have Photos Of

Emily Dickinson was a well-known American poet who lived from 1830 to 1886. Dickinson composed 1,800 poems in her lifetime. Regretfully, out of her complete body of work, only ten poems and one letter were released before to her passing. Known for her eccentricity, her poetry used slant rhymes, short lines, and usually no titles, which was a little unusual for the time.

Franklin Pierce was born in 1804, and after winning the 1853 election, he became the 14th President of the United States. Unfortunately, a number of his presidential actions resulted in the American Civil War in 1861. Despite his gregarious nature, Pierce is regarded by many historians and academics as one of the least memorable and worst presidents.
